  1. Looks really nice! Thanks for sharing
  2. True ronin, I'm not against the F-18, especially carrier operations would be a great feature to add. I'm just thinking of importance of both planes. I just did a quick search and I found that the number built for F-18s is only 1480 compared to the 4450 units of the F-16s (if we can believe wikipedia), so I'm just thinking the F-16 would be more interesting since it is so widespread. Also the F-16 had quite some revisions over the years, so maybe it's easier to get real life info on the older blocks of F-16s. I just hope it's not going to be an F-15 or F-14 (at least not yet). A fighter jet with A-A and A-G modes would be the way to go I suppose. In fact A-A combat is not so common or virtually non existent, but I think that in the virtual skies A-A is really needed :) Other planes/helicopters that I would want to see in the future are bigger aircraft like the C130 or AC130, the awacs (E-3 or something), apache, ... Protecting the sentry, escorting a c130 etc would be kinda cool. Does anybody know how often DCS wants to release new planes? Is it their goal to make one plane every year or something?
  3. I think an F-16 would be the best choice. Falcon 4.0 is almost 12 years old, and people are still adding content, just take a look at freefalcon for example, where the community is still quite active. If dcs would make the F-16 I think it would be an instant classic. Good multiplayer support, updated engine, coding expertise and knowledge about the jets, ... Everything is there to make a perfect F-16 sim. Getting rid of the old code base of falcon 4.0 would be the dream :)
  4. Hey guys, I'm a bit new to BS. I'm playing the campaign right now, and I'm kinda stuck at the 2nd mission where I have to protect a convoy. The problem I'm having is that I'm constantly being shot out of the air by a missile and that my wingman is not helping to get rid of the ambush. So as soon as I arrive to the convoy I fly to the next town (where the ambush is going to occur). Once the rebels start shooting I fire missiles into the forest, which seems to help somewhat. In the meantime my wingman is just hovering next to me, not doing anything. When I order him to attack ground moving targets (\, Engage, engage ground targets) he says he's unable to do anything? And after a while I get a message saying that one guy is shooting missiles, but I can't locate him in time. All the time I'm releasing countermeasures, but nothing seems to help. How can I best approach this mission? :)
  5. Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying the dcs a10 and ka50 sims, but I have a couple of questions. Is it true that people with the a10, ka50, lo fc2 can go and play online together? Or is it only valid for the dcs sims? Also the a10 seems to have better graphics than the ka50 sim. Are graphics going to be updated for the ka50, or is just my imagination and do they look the same :) I know graphics and all is not too important, but just wondering... Also, the dcs a10 has the nevada map, but I can't find any information that says the ka50 shares the same map? Any help appreciated! D
